Nice place I didn’t know we have a zoo in Brooklyn, it is smaller than Bronx but it is so convenient to us who stay in Brooklyn. It is also very interactive for kids.

We had the most amazing time at Brooklyn Zoo for our 7 yr old’s birthday today! The coaches, Frances & Ian, were incredible at instructing and making it super fun for the kids! Our party host set everything up beautifully and made it a breeze from start to finish. Everyone absolutely loved it.

Had my son's 14th birthday party here today.. staff was super cordial and responsive to all of our needs. The structured play kept the children engaged and burning energy. Highly recommend it. We will be visiting for open play in the future!

This place is absolutely amazing and such a gift for kids! It’s a warm, nurturing environment where children learn parkour, truly understand how to use their bodies, and build real strength and confidence. My son started coming here when he was just five years old, and now he is 12 — this place has become his second home. With our busy schedules, the flexibility of drop-in classes and open gym time has been a game changer and has worked far better for us than rigid, schedule-based team sports. Coach Nii pours his heart and soul into the kids, and it shows. He inspires, supports, and genuinely cares, creating a space where kids feel excited to come back again and again.

Had so much fun here during an open gym. Great space, equipment, and community! Got to try trampoline wall for the first time. Loved seeing all different movers in their element~
